[Verse 1]
In a place up north, in Oregon
She went looking for the promised land
Lost in the night, she dropped out of sight
And no one seems to understand

[Pre-Chorus]
And they keep on searchin' (keep on searchin')
It's like looking for a grain of sand
Struck by lightning
Now she's falling for a holy man

[Chorus]
Walking on water
Looking for a miracle
Walking on water
Drinking from a wishing well

[Verse 2]
Her father cries: "What have I done
To make her do these things to me?
I worked hard all my life, true sacrifice
And now she's turned her back on me"

[Pre-Chorus]
He keeps on searchin' (keep on searchin')
But she won't be coming home tonight
And he feels like dying
When she tells him that she's seen the light
[Chorus]
Walking on water
Looking for a miracle
Walking on water
Drinking from a wishing well
Walking on water

[Outro]
Walking on water
Looking for a miracle
Walking on water
Drinking from a wishing well
Walking on water (keep on searchin')
Walking on water (walking on water)
Walking on water (walking on water)
Drinking from a wishing well (walk, walk)
Keep on searchin'
Keep on searchin'...
